Dear ,
It is another special month for us. I know you have heard us saying that before but a lot has happened. Alex was in London to speak at CordaCon London, to a room packed with 150+ financial institutions business leaders, who showed immense interests in what we’re envisioning and working. During the event, R3 announced their collaboration with the UK government’s HM Land Registry to explore how house buying process can be simpler faster and cheaper. Another step towards Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) becoming mainstream this time at a national level.
Some of Alex thoughts after his London trip,
“I had the immense privilege and pleasure to speak at R3 sharing our vision of the future of capital markets through digital asset back securities (DABS) and how we are using Corda to achieve it. I was literally mobbed after my talk with further questions from a mix of incumbents, lawyers and tech firms as well as getting straight into details of specific use cases. More to come in the coming weeks and months as I have to diligently follow up on all of those now.
After 10 years out of London, it felt like a homecoming for me. Whilst I see a lot of innovation throughout Asia, it was great to get our vision validated by the crowd I have met in what will always be for me a major financial hub, one that taught most of what I know today. DABS or RATs (Real asset tokens) are not unknown in UK, particularly around real-estate and art use cases which means a lot of opportunities for us to create a East meets West bridge powered by our growing capabilities.”
